Nintendo's Japanese retail launch of the Alarmo alarm clock has been delayed due to supply chain challenges. This article details the postponement and the future availability of the popular device.
Japanese Alarmo Launch Postponed
Nintendo Japan has announced a postponement of the general retail release of the Alarmo, originally scheduled for February 2025. The delay, attributed to production and inventory limitations, leaves the new release date currently unspecified. The impact on international availability, currently slated for a March 2025 launch, remains unclear.
In response, Nintendo Japan is implementing a pre-order system exclusively for Nintendo Switch Online members in Japan. This pre-order period is anticipated to begin in mid-December, with shipments commencing in early February 2025. Specific pre-order dates will be announced shortly.
The Nintendo Alarmo: A Popular Alarm Clock
Launched globally in October, the Alarmo—an interactive alarm clock featuring iconic Nintendo soundtracks—quickly gained immense popularity. Its unexpected success led to the halting of online orders and a lottery system for purchase. The alarm clock sold out completely in physical Nintendo stores across Japan and even the New York Nintendo store.
Further updates on pre-orders and the rescheduled general sale will be shared as they become available.
